I used to be able to connect to xbox live by using an ethernet cable to my computer and using Internet Connection Sharing, but ever since their damn update i cant seem do this anymore. I've tried assigning the Xbox 360 a manual IP, an automatic IP, Disabling my firewalls and bridging the connection with my wireless one aswell as reseting the network settings. All have been unsuccessful. im using a windows Vista 32-bit. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Edit: I've used google and everyone (that i have seen) just repeat what i've already done.

Why not connect it directly to your router?

However, after a little bit of tinkering i figured it out. The hotspot shield helper driver was causing issues, all i had to do was disable it...what a waste of a day!

Anyway thanks guys.

Sure thing. That's why we're here, to not help, but get credit for helping!
